Iran-linked hackers breach Kash Patel's email, publish excerpts online

Iran-linked hackers on Friday claimed they had accessed FBI Director Kash Patel's personal email inbox, publishing photographs of the director and other documents to the internet. On their website, the hacker group Handala Hack Team said Patel "will now find his name among the list of successfully hacked victims." The hackers published a series of personal photographs of Patel sniffing and smoking cigars, riding in an antique convertible, and making a face while taking a picture of himself in the mirror with a large bottle of rum. A Justice Department official confirmed that Patel's email had been breached and said the material published online appeared authentic. The FBI did not respond to a request for comment. The hackers did not respond to messages. Handala, which presents itself as a group of pro-Palestinian vigilante hackers, is considered by Western researchers to be one of several personas used by Iranian government cyber-intelligence units. Handala recently claimed the hack of Michigan-based medical devices and services provider Stryker on March 11, saying they had deleted a massive trove of company data. Alongside the photographs of Patel, the hackers published a sample of more than 300 emails, which appear to show a mix of personal and work correspondence dating between 2010 and 2019. Reuters was not able to independently authenticate the Patel messages, but the personal Gmail address that Handala claims to have broken into matches the address linked to Patel in previous data breaches preserved by the dark web intelligence firm District 4 Labs. Alphabet-owned Google, which runs Gmail, did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Iran-linked hackers - who initially kept a low profile after the United States and Israel launched coordinated strikes against the Islamic Republic last month - have increasingly boasted of their cyber operations as the conflict drags on. In addition to the hack against Stryker, Handala on Thursday claimed to have published the personal data of dozens of defense company Lockheed Martin employees stationed in the Middle East. In a statement, Lockheed Martin said it was aware of the reports and had policies and procedures in place "to mitigate cyber threats to our business." Gil Messing, chief of staff at Israeli cybersecurity company Check Point, said the hack-and-leak operation against Patel was part of Iran's strategy to embarrass U.S. officials and "make them feel vulnerable." The Iranians, he said, are "firing whatever they have." It is not unusual for foreign hackers to target senior officials' personal emails, and breaches and leaks both happen periodically. Hackers famously broke into Hillary Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta's personal Gmail account ahead of the 2016 election and published much of the data to the WikiLeaks site. In 2015, teenage hackers broke into then-CIA director John Brennan's personal AOL account and leaked data about U.S. intelligence officials. Relatively unsophisticated breaches of this nature are in line with a U.S. intelligence assessment reviewed by Reuters on March 2. The assessment said Iran and its proxies could respond to the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei with low-level hacks against U.S. digital networks. Iran-linked hackers may have other emails in reserve. Last year, another group operating under the pseudonym "Robert" told Reuters it is considering disclosing 100 gigabytes of data stolen from White House chief of staff Susie Wiles and other figures close to U.S. President Donald Trump. Reuters has not been able to verify the claim and the group has not responded to messages in several months.

Secret Service agent assigned to Jill Biden accidentally shoots himself in leg at airport

Authorities say a U.S. Secret Service agent assigned to protect former first lady Jill Biden accidentally shot himself in the leg at Philadelphia International Airport. A spokesman for the Secret Service says Biden was not in the area when the agent was injured during a “negligent discharge” of his gun. A police spokeswoman says initial reports indicate the agent was traveling in an unmarked car when he accidentally fired his gun shortly before 9 a.m. He was hospitalized in stable condition. Airport operations were not affected.

Senate Moves To Fund Most Of Homeland Security After Shutdown Disrupts Airports

The U.S. Senate passed legislation early on Friday that would restore funding for most of the Department of Homeland Security, including airport security, but would not resolve a dispute over immigration enforcement that prompted the disruption in the first place. The bill would restore pay for airport security screeners, disaster-response workers and members of the U.S. Coast Guard, who have worked without pay since mid-February, when funding expired. It does not include new limits on the agents carrying out President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown - a key demand of Democrats. The partial government shutdown did not affect that activity, as the two agencies responsible for carrying it out, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, could draw on a separate source of funding. Trump's Republicans are expected to try to secure additional funding for those agencies in separate legislation. The Republican-controlled House of Representatives must also pass the bill before Trump can sign it into law, with a vote possible later on Friday. Senate Democrats blocked DHS funding after federal agents shot and killed two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis. The shutdown has led to long lines at many U.S. airports, as many airport security officers who have gone without pay have called in sick or resigned. Airports in Houston and Atlanta told passengers to expect wait times of up to four hours at security checkpoints on Friday. Since mid-February, Democrats and Republicans offered dueling bills to break the logjam, but neither party had garnered enough support for passage. Republicans would not go along with reforms to ICE and CBP operations that Democrats had insisted upon, resulting in the six-week standoff. That has caused widespread disruptions at airports. Trump said on Thursday he would take executive action to pay 50,000 airport security workers in an effort to address staff shortages that have snarled travel around the country. "Democrats held firm in our opposition that Donald Trump's rogue and deadly militia should not get more funding without serious reforms," Democratic Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said in a statement. Republican Senator Susan Collins, who chairs the Senate Appropriations Committee, said Democrats had damaged Congress' annual funding process, weakened national security, and set "a precedent that they may one day come to regret". "Democrats remained intransigent and unreasonable with their list of demands," she said in a statement. Republicans are expected to next try to fund ICE and CBP through a cumbersome procedure that would allow them to bypass Democratic opposition.

Trump Will Sign Emergency Order To Pay TSA Agents During Funding Impasse

President Donald Trump said Thursday he would sign an emergency order instructing the Homeland Security secretary to immediately pay Transportation Security Administration agents as Congress struggles to reach a deal to end the budget impasse that has jammed airports and left workers without paychecks. Congress is under pressure to fund DHS ahead of its upcoming spring recess, as TSA may have to shut down operations at some airports if the budget impasse drags on. The shutdown is taking a personal toll on TSA workers. Over 480 officers have quit altogether, according to DHS. At some of the busiest and most backed-up U.S. airports, ICE officers are patrolling security lines and checkpoints, ordered by Trump to assist a short-staffed TSA.
